[OOC] RWBY: Graduates

[Scarifar]

I'm still here. You could also turn off ghost mode so we know when you're online or not. Would really help so we know when to tell you to get in here and do stuff.

@Zugzwang edited a little. What all are you looking for in the fleshing out?

[Flamelord]

Well, I'm interested. I'll work on getting something out (Thinking up Semblances and weapons is hard >_< )

[Redrum]

I'm sorry to say, but I'm going to have to pull back my interest. Unfortunately I've lost my muse for this and I can't seem to find the motivation to finish my character. :(

Nevertheless, I do hope the best for you, @Zugzwang, and for this roleplay!

@Zugzwang ...?

I feel the need to point out that the team thing is purely for students, so graduates wouldn't need a team name unless they stuck with their team from whichever academy.

[KiltmanBagz]

It is heavily implied that School groups tend to keep in close contact, it is also heavily implied that there is an organization ( or a verity of sub organizations divided into types of tasks, Law enforcement, hunting, scouting, ect ) that could likely contract a group for a specific job/mission.

[Phantomlink959]

We have one team providing an example of school teams keeping contact, not enough to say heavy implication.
the leading theory is that hunters are government employed to some degree, and as such are likely sent out on missions as a military asset.
Next, a group of hunters being deployed as a unit after graduation would not need to follow the team names used by schools, and would likely follow a more standard military naming convention.
Finally, Zugzwang, why are you using RWBY setting if you are disregarding everything but terminology? why not reskin it and give yourself more freedom? that way you can use the basics and not worry about things like CNR and team naming conventions.

Fair points...though I also got the vibe that the Team involving Ruby and Yangs parents were not necessarily the team they had in school, and that much like many military based organisations that people are divided into units. But that is honestly conjecture with no real support in the show. Then again the only support we have for them being the school team is that they we have only seem teams within the school. The Rwby world is very lightly fleshed out. Food for thought at least.

And Honestly , in this fantasy world of color and fairy tail named people, that they wouldn't just keep using the same naming scheme in the school that is training them for for life as a pro-hunter. Like in Military school, which the Hunting schools basically are ( A far more light version to be sure but meh ), they use the same sort of squad naming scheme and structure that they use in the military proper. But again, there simply isn't enough information to say for sure one way or another.
